CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati Bengals defensive end Antwan Odom was taken off the field on a cart after injuring his left Achilles tendon in the first quarter.
Odom, tied for the NFL sacks lead with eight, got hurt on Houston's 12-yard touchdown pass with 48 seconds left in the first quarter Sunday. The training staff felt the lower leg and immediately called for a cart to take Odom off the field.
The defensive lineman has been the key to Cincinnati's improved pass rush. He also blocked a field goal attempt on Houston's first possession.
